And on to the Flop: Days 95 – 105

On September 24, 2019September 24, 2019 By within-walking-distanceLeave a comment

Unlike some flip floppers, I didn't head back down to Harpers Ferry right after summitting Katahdin. Instead, I took a mini vacation in the middle of my vacation. I saw friends at Acadia, other friends in NYC, flew across the Atlantic to see Hotman in his natural habitat, and then finally home for a few …

Mile 1052.5 - 1167, 7/27/19 - 8/3/19 Day 87: 10.4 miles ME 15 (Monson) to Wilson Valley Lean-to We got a very late start on trail today, due to a combination of Salty having to resupply since he couldn't yesterday, our general laziness about getting out of town, and the fact that the folks at …

Mile 847.6 - 946.6, 7/10/19-7/18/19 A quick note: this post, and the next, are written well after the events in them. I was pretty bad about writing in my journal while in Maine and New Hampshire, so it won't be big on the details. But if you're just here for the pretty pictures, I got …

If you don't have a souvenir to show off to people, did you really hike 2000+ miles? #appalachiantrail #atthruhiker #atthruhike #atclassof2019 #at2019 #appalachiantrail2019 #appalachiantrailconservancy
Day 158: 15.7 miles (+ some down!), 11/12/19 Total miles: 2192!!!! Welp. It's done. I don't think any of us finishing (me, Salty, and Slick) really knew how to feel. It was super cold and windy up there, so we couldn't stay too long and figure it out up there. To be honest, even if I'd been able to stay up there an hour I wouldn't be able to fully comprehend it. Probably will take awhile to really set in. . . . . . . . . . #trektheat #appalachiantrail #atflipflop2019 #atthruhiker #atflipflop #atclassof2019 #atthruhike #at2019 #appalachiantrail2019 #appalachianmountains #atthruhike2019 #flipflopthruhike #thruhiker #thruhike #thruhiking #backpacker #backpacking #womenwhohike #hikelikeagirl #springermountain #georgia #ihikeditilikedit
Day 157: 15.6 miles, 11/11/19 Headed up the climb to Blood Mountain, then hung with some new friends at a shelter a little ways beyond. I tried to treat today like I used to hike, long breaks and really taking in the views, not just the constant hiking it's been for the past few weeks. . . . . . . . . . #trektheat #appalachiantrail #atflipflop2019 #atthruhiker #atflipflop #atclassof2019 #atthruhike #appalachiantrail2019 #at2019 #appalachianmountains #atthruhike2019 #bloodmountain #thruhike #thruhiker #thruhiking #backpacker #backpacking #womenwhohike
